Does anyone know where my verdammt stapler is???

[kedrys]

We've been in the new house almost 6 weeks, and we still haven't found the box where I packed my stapler. It's a Swingline. I must have it before my desk becomes sentient from all the info on the printouts I've strewn upon it.

1. Check the leprechaun n/t

[Not_Giving_Up]

2. I have it!

Sorry, you can have it back now...

NGU

[kedrys]

5. Teleport it over at once, pretty please

It's not only a Swingline, it has sentimental value. It's a souvenir from the last full-time job I had, when the whole department was nuked and we grabbed everything that wasn't bolted down. :D

[Not_Giving_Up]

9. Ha!

You didn't work at Enron, did you?

[kedrys]

11. No, although I know a few people who worked there

This one was at the large evil financial institution known only as...JPMorgan Chase. :P In one of the IT departments.

[Not_Giving_Up]

13. I knew a few too

Worked with one lady that used to joke that she was so good with the shredder because of her experience there.

Gotta love downtown!

3. here you go...

:evilgrin:

[kedrys]

8. Mine was brown, and a tad more squarish than that one

But as long as it's a Swingline, I'll take it! :D

[Blue-Jay]

4. I stole it!

[kedrys]

10. How dare you!!

:rofl:

Return it this instant! :D

[Sugar Smack]

6. Have you checked your bottom?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


Sorry, it's Friday, and I'm feeling like a little kid again!!!

[kedrys]

7. ROFL!!!

Um, yeah, just now, per your suggestion. It's not there.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Sugar Smack]

17. Check progmom's bottom, then!

:woohoo:

[kedrys]

19. You know how much trouble that could get me into...?

I might just have to go for it! :evilgrin:

[Sugar Smack]

21. True, true, although-

progmom doesn't strike me so much as the type to confuse a stapler with a suppository, now that I'm really thinking about it!

:o

[Ruby Romaine]

12. mine is missing too!-I've been looking for 3 months!

Swingline!
that brings up memories of Long Island City & the big neon Swingline sign-
Is it still there?
-the factory closed & jobs left the country.
I found an interesting article about the Swingline Company online:

16. I hope I find mine in less time

I've been wigging about it all week. My desk is starting to whine about the mess. :P

[China_cat]

14. Check the box marked 'kitchen #3'

[kedrys]

15. Nope, we already opened that one

As a matter of fact, we opened a lot of them in the garage when we looked for the DVDs. kitchen #3 was unloaded the first few days.

Any other guesses?

[Swede]

18. This it?

[kedrys]

20. Nope

Mine is brown, an older model. It has no plastic in it whatsoever. It weighs about 12 pounds. :D

[Richardo]

22. I think this guy took it...

[Sugar Smack]

23. ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Richardo, I think it's time I told you you really crack my shit up!!!!

:rofl:

[Richardo]

25. ;-)

:hi: Sugar Smack!

[kedrys]

24. ROFLMAO!!!!!

But I don't have a basement...where is he? I want my stapler BACK!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Richardo]

26. let him keep it - he'll burn the building down.

[kedrys]

27. He can keep the stapler if I can have the check

Then I'll buy another stapler! :rofl:

[Sugar Smack]

28. give him a little office cake, too.

:hi: Richardo!
